Multiculturalism is EVIL
That Uppity Democratic Muslim!
First we had Glenn Beck, now it's Dennis Prager. Rep. Ellison wants to take his oath of office with his hand on the Koran. Now all hell has broken loose among the wingnuts.
Multiculturalism is coming! Multiculturalism is coming!
The Original Article:
America, Not Keith Ellison, decides what book a congressman takes his oath on
(Be sure to read the comments at the bottom of the article)
Keith Ellison, D-Minn., the first Muslim elected to the United States Congress, has announced that he will not take his oath of office on the Bible, but on the bible of Islam, the Koran.
He should not be allowed to do so -- not because of any American hostility to the Koran, but because the act undermines American civilization.
First, it is an act of hubris that perfectly exemplifies multiculturalist activism -- my culture trumps America's culture. What Ellison and his Muslim and leftist supporters are saying is that it is of no consequence what America holds as its holiest book; all that matters is what any individual holds to be his holiest book. ...
But these naive people do not appreciate that America will not change the attitude of a single American-hating Muslim by allowing Ellison to substitute the Koran for the Bible. In fact, the opposite is more likely: Ellison's doing so will embolden Islamic extremists and make new ones, as Islamists, rightly or wrongly, see the first sign of the realization of their greatest goal -- the Islamicization of America.

I don't know if you saw "Hardball" today, but Ed Rogers insinuated that Barack Obama is Muslim, through the use of his middle name, which is Hussein. However, when Rogers threw it out he said it like it were profane. C&L has the video. There is going to be racist swiftboating of Barack Obama like we've never seen if he decides to run in '08, but the religious bigotry now on parade is equally heinous and anti-American. For future reference, what Republicans intend to do is blast Obama's full name across airwaves hoping that average Americans will be turned off by "Hussein," playing the religious bigotry card on top of everything else they'll throw at him.
